Description
In this episode you'll hear the stories behind the songs written by Mark Irwin. Mark has been in Nashville for over 25 years and was the writer of Alan Jackson's first #1 hit "Here In The Real World." He also wrote "Redneck Crazy" for Tyler Farr, "Highway Don't Care" for Tim McGraw and Taylor Swift along with other great songs written for Jimmy Buffett, Lainey Wilson, Blake Shelton, Randy Travis and more. He also talks about how he got a check for $5,000 from Garth Brooks because Garth decided to not record his song...only to later record it anyway. And how after this many years in Nashville he gets inspired by new young artists and writers and has worked heavily with guys like AJ Kross, Davis Loose and Cam Newby.
